CBS ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ (B&B) spoilers indicate that yes, there will be all of the love and fighting scenes that you would expect from a soap like B&B, but they will just be reworked a little different behind the scenes. Here’s what you need to know.
Now that we live in a Covid-19 world in which everyone must follow strict social distancing rules in order to help curb the virus, this means that soaps like ‘Bold and the Beautiful’ will have to change the way they film from this point forward, or at least until there is an available vaccine.

CBS ‘The Bold and the Beautiful’ Spoilers: Cast Are Bringing Their Spouses To Work
According to ‘Bold and the Beautiful’ executive producer and head writer Brad Bell, the cast and crew will use a combination of props such as blow-up dolls and the cast’s own spouses to help fill in the gap for the love scenes, seeing how everyone must keep their distance from one another while on set. As long as the spouses test negative for the coronavirus, they will be able to join their partners for the love scenes that involve touching.
As far as those blow-up dolls though, Bell says that with a little camera trickery, he will make them look as realistic as possible. “They’ll look like their nose to nose, in the throes of passion,” Bell says. “But they’ll be shooting scenes all by themselves.” Bell further explained, “We have some life-like blow-up dolls that have been sitting around here for the past 15 years, that we’ve used for various other stories — (like) when people were presumed dead. We’re dusting off the dolls and putting new wigs and make-up on them and they’ll be featured in love scenes.” In addition, other physical changes, such as installing Plexiglas in the production booth will separate the director and the assistant director. Meanwhile, lighting has been moved to a separate area.
